QuickSynergy

QuickSynergy is a front-end for Synergy. You can control several computers with the same keyboard and mouse. I intend to test a 3-monitor setup: a Dell 15″ laptop with 17″ LCD connected and the MacMini connected to a 24″ LCD.

    [...] QuickSynergy let me use one keyboard and mouse for the three screens and two systems (XP and MacMini). I could tuck in my other Inspiron laptop and boot Linux to make a 4 LCD setup but that would be an overkill. [...]
